Pre-revenue With Deepening LossesBeing pre-revenue while losses widen undermines the firm’s ability to self-fund development. Deepening net losses reflect rising costs without offsetting sales, increasing the likelihood of external financing, dilution, or project delays and raising medium-term execution risk.
Rapidly Rising Leverage And Shrinking EquityA sharp increase in debt alongside falling equity severely weakens balance-sheet flexibility. Elevated leverage raises interest-service and covenant risk, reduces borrowing options for project finance, and magnifies downside risk if development timelines slip or commodity markets soften.

This structural cash burn increases dependency on dilutive equity or expensive debt and elevates the risk that capital shortages delay permitting, studies, or construction.
